Most of these are either served from playable airports or from other airports in the region of a playable airport (e. g. the destination has connections to DXB or DOH → it could also be connected to MCT in the game, or it has connections to CDG/FRA/BRU/AMS → could also be available at LHR), or they were served from a playable airport at some point in the past. And even if not, I think they would still make sense to be added for players’ fleets.
That all being listed and said, I’m wondering if this shouldn’t have been posted as a request in Feature requests > Gameplay in the first place, though…

Yeah I could change it to that, adding all 3 posts together for it

These airports, some don’t have irl ops to any playable airport and some have none at all, but if a player wanted to operate their own airline, it would make sense that they wouldn’t fly already competitive routes, especially if operating regionally like from LHR. These would be perfect for that.

Country ICAO Code Airport Name Runway Length Bonus bits
Ireland
CFN Donegal Airport 1,495m/4,905ft Takes ATR’s on scheduled routes from Loganair to Glasgow and Aer Lingus to Dublin
KIR Kerry Airport 2,000m/6,562ft Ryanair operates several flights from here
WAT Waterford Airport 1,433m/4,701ft No current operations but VLM and Aer Arran used to do flights with ATR’s and Fokker 50s. Could have Aer Lingus ATR’s and operate BA into
UK
BHD Belfast City George Best Airport 1,829m/6,000ft British Airways fly into here from LHR with A320s as well as seeing Loganair, Aer Lingus, easyJet and KLM
CAX Carlisle Airport 1,837m/6,027ft No current operations but Loganair used to fly in with Saab’s as did Stobart Air and Aer Arran. As you can see it has a slightly longer runway to BHD so can take A320s
BLK Blackpool Airport 1,868m/6,129ft No current ops but used to host Ryanair, Jet2 and Aer Arran flights
VLY Anglesey (RAF Valley) Airport 2,290m/7,513ft No current ops but Eastern Airways (operating for FlyBe), Air Wales and others operated the main flight to Cardiff. Could be a good LHR destination as well as for other European playable airports. One I’d love to see
CEG Chester (Hawarden) Airport 2,093m/6,867ft No ops, BMI Regional operated a flight to both Bristol and Toulouse on behalf of Airbus, Beluga operates in and out. Another one I’d love to see, it’s the most local airport to me so it would be a cool one to operate to
CWL Cardiff Airport 2,354m/7,723ft Wales has been done dirty by the devs :laughing:, big airport, BA has a repair base there for its 787’s, can take big planes Qatar wanted to fly there, FlyBe had it as a base as did BMI Baby, TUI and Ryanair have a base at the airport, Vueling flies there amongst others and WestJet is to start ops there from Toronto
SWS Swansea Airport 1,350m/4,429ft Can take ATRs and Dash 8s, Air Wales operated here for a while. Would be a cool bonus one to operate too for regional ops say with BA or FlyBe
HAW Haverfordwest Airport 1,524m/5,000ft Could be fun for regionals - same as Swansea although hasn’t ever had ops
DSA Doncaster Sheffield Airport 2,893m/9,491ft No longer used but could be fun for regional ops as well as a Ryanair/Wizz/Thomson airport for routes to playable airports in Europe as they used to operate flights. Big runway and plenty of parking ops so can take large aircraft, has the long runway as used to be used for the Vulcan nuclear bombers
HUY Humberside Airport 2,196m/7,205ft KLM flies in there, would be good as a regional destination from LHR
MME Teeside Airport 2,291m/7,516ft Same as Humberside above, both were also big for Eastern if they’re ever added, RIP. Has more ops though with Ryanair and TUI plus has FedEx freight
PIK Glasgow Prestwick 2,986m/9,797ft Only has Ryanair pax ops but takes freight including 747-8F’s. Could be good for a regional destination from LHR or for Ryanair flights to PRG and the such
KOI Kirkwall Airport 1,430m/4,692ft Is an actual route from LHR, can take Dash 8, Saab and ATR’s
LSI Sumburgh Airport 1,500m/4,921ft Same as Kirkwall, Loganair LHR route
SYY Stornoway Airport 2,088m/6,850ft Can take A320/737/BAE 146, has scheduled routes to Manchester, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Southampton and Aberdeen but could be served from LHR
GCI Guernsey Airport 1,463m/4,800ft Aurigny used to operate its E195 from here, can take A320s on shorter routes as not too much weight. BA is to launch routes next April from LHR
EXE Exeter Airport 2,076m/6,811ft FlyBe used to have it as a base (Prior to its collapse in 2020 it made up 80% of the airport pax traffic), Loganair currently does, can take A320 family and 737 family, TUI, Ryanair, KLM, Aer Lingus operate in and out. Would be good for LHR regional ops
NQY Newquay Airport 2,744m/9,003ft Ryanair and Loganair do flights there, route to LHR as well. Eurowings, easyJet and Edelweiss do seasonal flights. Would give Cornwall an airport and one that could get international flights if the player wanted their airline to fly there from say IAD.
PLH Plymouth City Airport 1,160m/3,809ft Now permanently closed but used to do a route to LHR with Air Southwest, could be good for a ‘What if?’ situation
BOH Bournemouth Airport 2,271m/7,451ft Ryanair, Jet2, TUI operate out of it but the ex-Virgin Atlantic A346’s made cargo freighters fly out of it so could be an interesting one for bigger routes
Adding extras, ILY Islay Airport 1,545m/5,069ft Loganair does ops here from Glasgow with ATR46s, would be cool to see as a regional option say from LHR with BA’s BAE’s or if their CRJs, ATRs, ERJs or Dash 8’s are added.
CAL Cambeltown Airport 1,412m/4,633ft Loganair does ops here with the DHC6 but the runway is long enough for ATR and such ops as per other airports on this list
TRE Tiree Airport 1,481/4,859ft Same as Cambeltown
BEB Benbecula Airport 1,837m/6,027ft Loganair flies in with ATR75s from across Scotland. As per Islay, would be cool for UK regional ops
WIC Wick Airport 1,831m/6,007ft 2m longer than Belfast City, would be cool for regional ops for players operating BA from LHR or their own airline
Belgium
OST Ostend Bruges Int Airport 3,200m/10,499ft TUI does the pax ops, tons of freight fly in and out - 747’s are a regular for them
Netherlands
MST Maastricht Airport 2,750m/9,022ft Transavia, Wizz operate limited pax flights, cargo flights from Emirates, Turkish, OneAir with 777F’s
GRQ Groningen Airport Eelde 2,500m/8,202ft Big runway, Transavia and TUI operate from there, KLM does their training flights there
France
RNS Rennes Saint-Jacques Airport 2,102m/6,896ft Air France and KLM fly there with E170/175
CFR Caen Carpiquet Airport 1,900m/6,234ft Air France, Volotea
LIL Lille Airport 2,825m/9,268ft Air Algerie,easyJet, TUI, Transavia, Volotea as just some operators
ETZ Metz-Nancy-Lorraine Airport 3,050m/10,007ft TUI operates from here, Air Algerie flies here. Has cargo ops.
SXB Strasbourg Airport 2,400m/7,874ft Volotea, KLM, easyJet, Vueling, Iberia
TUF Tours Val de Loire 2,404m/7,887ft Ryanair operates there
CHR Chateauroux Centre Marcel Dassault Airport 3,500m/11,483ft Charter Pax/Cargo ops. Big runway, would be fab as an option for players to fly to with their own airline or for their local contract to fly into
LRH La Rochelle Ile de Re Airport 2,213m/7,260ft easyJet/Ryanair operate there
PIS Poitiers-Biard Airport 2,350m/7,710ft Volotea operates there
CFE Clermont-Ferrand Auvergne Airport 3,015m/9,892ft Air France operates there
NIQ Biarritz Pays Basque Airport 2,250m/7,382ft Ryanair does ops out of there as well as Air France and Transavia
MPL Montpellier Mediterranee Airport 2,600m/8,530ft Same as above
TLN Toulon-Hyeres Airport 2,120m/6,955ft Transavia does flights here
CQF Calais Dunkerque Airport 1,535m/5,036ft Would be a fun airport - has no irl ops but a 5000ft runway
CORSICA!!! AJA, BIA, CLY, FSC Ajaccio Napoleon Bonaparte, Bastia Poretta, Calvi Sainte-Catherine, Figari Sud-Corse 2,300m/7,546ft, 2,520m/8,268ft, 2,310m/7,579ft, 2,480m/8,136ft All 4 of these can take A320 family and all are served by Air France and Air Corsica as well as Ajaccio being served by half of Europe lol.

Thank you so much for making this list! Love that you included Eugene and Medford!

I think we could also throw in:

Redmond (RDM) - Operates flights up to the size of the B39M

North Bend (OTH) - Operates daily E175 flights

Portland-Hillsboro (HIO) - Doesn’t have any commercial operations, but has had Intel Air Shuttle E145XR and E175 operations in the past, and in theory can take aircraft as large as the C-5M. Also would be really good for helping to introduce GA in the future. (Also my home airport haha)

Van Nuys (VNY) - Similar reasons to HIO

Teterboro (TEB) - Similar reasons to HIO

Pasco Tri-Cities (PSC) - Operates flights up to the size of the B39M

@Jamesonplanes Curious on why you’ve chosen Billings airport over some of the other options in Montana for your list?

We have Bozeman, which is the busiest airport in the state, but Missoula is a busier airport (2nd busiest in state), Glacier/Kalispell is busier (ranked 3rd) and serves a more iconic location. Both of those airports are dominated by regional jets (CRJs/ERJs) but Glacier also receives Allegiant Air which flies A319s/20s.

Billings is the main airport for eastern Montana, but let’s be honest about eastern Montana… why would you go there (born and raised in Bozeman). The major tourist stops are in the west and north of the state, and main universities are Montana State and of U of M in Bozeman and Missoula respectively. Both of those strike me as far more important airports to include.

I’ll add a few airports to this list:

JAC / Jackson Hole Airport / Jackson Hole, WY – This is a popular tourist destination receives CRJs, A319s, A320s, E175s, and CRJ700s. It would be the busiest airport in the state, in an icon location, provide some variety of aircraft contracts, and fill in a state that has 0 airports to fly our planes to!

MHT / Manchester-Boston Regional / Manchester, NH – The primary airport for the state of New Hampshire, features contracts with Avelo, Sun Country, United, Southwest, JetBlue, and American.

Didn’t expect my local airport (CAX) to get any mention in the forums due to how small (and insignificant tbh) it is. The main runway (06/24) is just long enough for an A400 to use.

Ah, I’ve included a few airports that can take regional ops and would flesh out the map a bit. I believe the A400 has STOL capabilities and can operate from shorter runways. Might have to change what it can take tbf, runway is longer than City by 300m so could take BA 320s if players wish to.
